Looking for a Redmi Note 4 successor? This could be it. After it was speculated that Xiaomi might drop its Redmi “Note” moniker, it appears that the Redmi Note 5 device could be announced tomorrow on Valentine’s Day. The big reveal is happening in India and it has been a year since the current Redmi Note 4 for international markets was launched.

2017 was a big year for Xiaomi as they have regained its top 5 global position. They have been increasing its presence with the opening of more Mi Stores overseas and through strategic partnerships including Lazada. Thanks to a massive year-end sale, Xiaomi had doubled its number of smartphones shipped in Q4 2017 and surprisingly, they managed to overtake OPPO.

Xiaomi has officially announced its new Redmi 5 and Redmi 5 Plus smartphones which offer a big screen experience at an affordable price. Featuring a tall 18:9 display aspect ratio, the screen takes up a larger viewing area while it maintains a compact footprint compared to a typical 16:9 display. What’s interesting is that the Redmi 5 series is very affordable with a starting price of just 799CNY (about RM493).

Xiaomi has achieved a new major milestone when it shipped over 10 million smartphones for the month of September. This is a record high for the Chinese smartphone maker that’s known for selling high-spec phones at lower price points.

In conjunction with the upcoming Hari Merdeka celebration, Xiaomi Malaysia is offering a special bundle promo for its entry-level Redmi 4X smartphone. Originally announced at RM679, the Redmi 4X can be yours at RM649 and it comes with a free fast charging powerbank worth RM85.

Last month, Xiaomi announced the Redmi Pro which is the flagship model in the affordable Redmi series. If that wasn’t enough, Xiaomi will be introducing yet another new smartphone (or possible two) tomorrow.

The Xiaomi Redmi 3 isn’t officially available in Malaysia yet but they have announced even more variants of the Redmi 3 series in China. Following the announcement of its higher-end Redmi 3 Pro, the Chinese company now has the Redmi 3S and the Redmi 3X. The Redmi 3S looks like an updated version of the Redmi 3 but it still maintains the same starting price of 699 CNY which is below RM500.
